Minitube - Perhaps the Cleanest Looking YouTube Desktop Application for Ubuntu

Minitube is a flash free YouTube desktop application for Linux and Mac OSX. Minitube is perhaps one of the cleanest looking YouTube desktop client I have ever used in Ubuntu. And the fact that Minitube does not use the Flash player to play videos makes it a really low consumer of your CPU resources.


Minitube Feature List
  • Minitube interface looks nice and simple. All you need to do is, enter the keywords into the search box and hit 'enter'. Minitube will find what you are looking for.
  • Minitube plays HD videos up to 1080p. And there is an option to go full screen as well. 
  • Since Minitube does not use Flash Player, Minitube in turn preserves battery life and keeps your laptop cool.
